Courriel::Header - A single header's name and value

version 0.49

  my $subject = $headers->get('subject');
  print $subject->value;

This class represents a single header, which consists of a name and value.

This class supports the following methods:

This method requires two attributes, "name" and "value". Both must be strings. The "name" cannot be empty, but the "value" can.

The header name as passed to the constructor.

The header value as passed to the constructor.

$header->as_string( charset => $charset )

Returns the header name and value with any necessary MIME encoding and folding.

The "charset" parameter specifies what character set to use for MIME-encoding non-ASCII values. This defaults to "utf8". The charset name must be one recognized by the Encode module.

$header->stream_to( output => $output, charset => ... )

This method will send the stringified header to the specified output. The output can be a subroutine reference, a filehandle, or an object with a "print()" method. The output may be sent as a single string, as a list of strings, or via multiple calls to the output.

See the "as_string()" method for documentation on the "charset" parameter.

This class does the "Courriel::Role::Streams" role.
